Para Resources Inc.: Update NI 43-101 Technical Report
on Gold Road Mine Filed on SEDAR
NI 43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate by RPM GLOBAL expected in early
January 2018
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - December 7, 2017) - Para Resources Inc. (TSXV: PBR) (WKN: A14YF1) (OTC
Pink: PRSRF) (the "Company" or "Para") is pleased to announce that an NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Gold Road Mine
and surrounding mineral claims under the control of Para has been filed on SEDAR and is available for review.
Some selected highlights from the report:
The Gold Road Mine has an excellent historic resource base that is expected to be upgraded with additional development.
There are several significant exploration targets that, with appropriate exploration and development resources are
expected to be upgraded into current NI 43-101 mineral resources
The report concludes that the proposed multi-year exploration plan be implemented to test additional targets along strike,
down dip and parallel veins to the existing Gold Road Vein with the goal of upgrading the identified mineralization into a
current NI 43-101 mineral resource. A program should also be developed to upgrade historic resources to NI 43-101
mineral resources (in addition to what will be upgraded by the sampling currently underway in association with the planned
PEA confirmation sampling program).
The targeted multi-year exploration budget of US$ 6.6 million, to be financed by planned production cash flow, is expected
to yield a target of 716,000 new ounces of gold, at an average discovery cost of under $10 per ounce.

The Gold Road Mine has an extensive and successful operating history
The potential
of restarting operations at Gold Road Mine, pending the completion of the Exploration Plan and the PEA,
appears reasonable due to the following:
All surface disturbances are on private land owned by Gold Road
Recent operating history has demonstrated achievable and efficient mining methods and metallurgical recoveries
All necessary permits are in place and secured
There has been a long history of environmental compliance
Geoff Hampson, Para's CEO, states, "This NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Gold Road mine is the first in a series of reports
that we expect to be published in the coming months. The work of the NI 43-101 mineral resource estimate is underway with
RPA Global, on site conducting "check sampling and assays" on the many hundreds of historic drill and channel samples taken
by the previous management. We expect that report will define a current mineral resource that will allow RPA Global to complete
a PEA early in 2018. The de-watering of the lower levels of the Gold Road Mine is underway and expected to be completed in
December. The NI 43-101 Resource Estimate is expected to be completed by the end of December or early January 2018. The
PEA is scheduled to be completed at the end of January or early February." Hampson further states, "We are moving forward
with our step by step plan to bring the Gold Road Mine back into production in the second quarter of 2018, implementing a new
mining and extraction method to optimize production costs."
A NI 43-101 Technical Report on the adjacent claims and historic mines recently acquired in the Oatman District will be finalized
and posted to SEDAR in the coming weeks.
If the Company were to bring the Gold Road mine into production without first establishing mineral reserves supported by an NI
43-101 technical report and completing a feasibility study, the Company cautions that this could result in higher risk of economic
or technical failure of the operation than if a feasibility study had been prepared demonstrating economic and technical viability.
There are no assurances that the Gold Road mine will be found to be economic.

ABOUT PARA RESOURCES:
Para is a junior producing gold mining company. Para owns approximately 80% of the El Limon project, in Colombia, which in
addition to its current underground operation is purchasing mineralized rock mined by small artisanal miners working on the
Company's property. The El Limon and OTU properties also have exploration and development upside. The Company also
owns 88% of the Gold Road Mine in the Oatman District of Arizona. The Company has hired RPM Global as consulting
engineers in order to produce a NI 43-101 Technical Report which it expects will establish a current Mineral Resource estimate
and anticipates that it will publish a NI 43-101 PEA thereafter.
Para will continue to take advantage of current market conditions
to acquire and develop additional highly economic, near-term production assets that have strong exploration and development
upside.
